Xiao Hong continued: "In addition, Shanghai sent a message asking us to send the original shadow warning as soon as possible, and specifically emphasized that it is not required to have all the contents. As long as the shadow's signature is signed, they must check the handwriting and confirm the shadow's information."

Cheng Xingye couldn't help but feel a little surprised when he heard this. He asked in confusion: "They still have to check their handwriting? Can't they contact Shadow and ask directly?"

Cheng Xingye is not clear about the way to contact Shadow and Shanghai. If you want to confirm whether Shadow’s information is true, the easiest and most effective way is of course to contact directly and ask in person, how can you confirm it through handwriting? You should know that the handwriting may also be imitated by others.

However, the signature of the shadow is indeed very special. He has never seen anyone use this exaggerated and elegant writing method, which should be the unique writing method of the shadow.

Xiao Hong was also a little strange and said, "This is indeed a problem, but I judged that Shadow should have suddenly come to Nanjing and temporarily lost contact with Shanghai, so the Shanghai side confirmed it through handwriting. In other words, someone in Shanghai is very familiar with Shadow's handwriting."

Cheng Xingye also nodded and said, "Tomorrow, you will send a traffic officer to Shanghai to send the original signature of Shadow. Or use the No. 3 Contact Station. By the way, have they explained the fact that Shadow knows my identity?"

Cheng Xingye has always been wondering about this matter. If he can't explain it clearly, he can't let it go. It's not that he is worried about his personal safety, but that his identity is too important and his responsibilities are too great, so he cannot tolerate any negligence.

But Xiao Hong shook his head and replied: "Scholar said that he didn't know how Shadow found you. According to him, Shadow has been active in Shanghai and it is impossible to know your identity, unless it was before the outbreak of the full-scale war. At that time, Shadow worked under the leadership of the Nanjing Municipal Party Committee, and there might have been intersections. Maybe it was at that time that he knew some of your situation."

Of course, this answer would not satisfy Cheng Xingye. He said helplessly: "Then wait until Shanghai resumes its contact with Shadow and ask clearly.

Speaking of this, he couldn't help but muttered to himself: "Has Shadow and I really met?"

The more Cheng Xingye thought about it, the more he became puzzled. As soon as he arrived in Nanjing, he took over the position of Kuquan and became one of the five members of the Standing Committee. He has a high status within the organization. Logically speaking, Shadow's identity should not be higher than himself, and it is even less likely that he has the authority to know his identity. This is really a difficult mystery.

In the office of the Special High School, Yushi Imai summoned Matsunaga Nagato Abe Lushan, who was responsible for monitoring Takasugi Inki's work, to him.

Yuzhi Imai's face was gloomy and terrible, and his eyes were fixed on the two people. The atmosphere in the room was extremely depressing, which made the two people feel uneasy.

This time, the surveillance operation failed, and they were responsible for this task naturally could not escape responsibility, especially the casualties of their subordinates. I don’t know how Yuzhi Imai would treat them?

"Have the domestic special high school class's ability to operate has deteriorated to this level? You have so many people who monitor an intelligence officer from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. He was noticed after just two days of surveillance and was still led into a trap. He didn't know that he had lost his subordinates in vain and lost all his face. It was simply stupid!"

Yuzhi Imai's words made the two of them feel ashamed. They first came to Nanjing and suffered such a big fall when they just accepted the task. Now that they were scolded by Yuzhi Imai, they were simply ashamed.

Yuzhi Imai continued: "General Uehara has made a ruling. Takasugi Inki is investigated by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and strictly prohibits our special high school class from intervening in it. Your mission for this trip has been completed. Return to China as soon as possible!"

"Colonel!" Ono Matsunaga exclaimed when he heard this. He stepped forward, "This mission cannot be given up easily. We are also planning to use Takasugi Shinki as a breakthrough to further detect the domestic red organization..."

"Enough, it's your incompetence that messed up the whole operation, was led by someone, and also caused us to lose people!" Yuzhi Imai slapped the table suddenly and snorted coldly. He pointed to Matsunaga Ono's nose and scolded, "It's too late to say anything now. Even the North China headquarters cannot change this fact. This is Central China, Nanjing, and the command center of the Central China Front Army. I cannot violate General Uehara's orders."

Ono Matsunagari was speechless. Yuzhi Imai said nothing wrong. In fact, even if North China now agrees to their arrest plan, it is conceived as a secret arrest. Without alarming the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, we should take action first and create a fait accompli.

But now everything is on the surface. No matter how strong the Special High School Headquarters is, they will not dare to violate the command of the military headquarters in central China. This matter is indeed impossible to continue.

"In fact, the headquarters has just sent a message. Director Tuhara did not agree to your arrest application. He warned us that we can investigate secretly, but we must not have direct conflicts with the military or other intelligence departments."

The attitude of the North China headquarters is very clear. At present, the special high school department has conflicts with other intelligence departments in many aspects because of its rapid expansion of power. For this reason, Keiji Tuhara has been very troublesome, especially in the central China region, where the military headquarters is dominant, Keiji Tuhara does not want to cause trouble, so he quickly made such an instruction.

"It's actually like this?" Ono Matsunaga and Anbe Lu Shan looked disappointed, and the last little hope in his heart was shattered.

Seeing Matsunaga Ono's dejected look, Yuzhi looked slightly slowed down and ordered: "However, I have urged Taichi Ihara, the president of the United News Agency, to ask him to ask him to find out the identity of the last man in the photo as soon as possible. You can take this clue back to China for a commission, and it has not been in vain."

Matsunaga Ono thought for a moment, he had to nod his head and take the order. It would be an explanation to go back with this gain, otherwise he would be blinded if he returned to China in such a shame.

But he still asked unwillingly: "What should we do with the suspicious people we monitored about Takasugi Inki?"

Yushi Imai looked at Ono Matsunaga in surprise, but he didn't expect that this person was a very serious and rigorous person and had not given up completely yet.

After pondering for a while, Yuzhi Imai finally nodded and said, "Then I will give you another chance. I will immediately arrest the people you think are suspicious in the past two days, especially the nearby grocery store I mentioned before, and all the personnel of the antique store "Fangwaidong" will hurry up and check if there is any gain. Onojun, time is tight, let's act now."

Although Yuzhi Imai gave up the investigation of Inki Takasugi, he had no concerns about other suspicious targets, and he could not let go of it easily as long as there was a little suspicion.

"Hi Yi!" Ono Matsunaga respectfully accepted the order and retreated with Lushan Anbe.

The next day, the trafficker sent by Xiao Hong boarded the train and arrived in Shanghai in the afternoon of the same day. The trafficker got off the train and entered a tailor shop in the French Concession with a familiar way. He looked at the tailor and entered a house in the back hall. The tailor followed him in.

The trafficman took off a long coat on his body and handed it to the tailor. He then took another set of long gowns from the clothes hanger next to him and put them on his body with quick hands and feet. The two nodded to each other, and without saying much, the trafficman quickly walked out of the door.

The tailor touched the corner of the Changshan clothes, felt the abnormality inside, nodded slightly, and changed the Changshan clothes. He went out soon after.

Two hours later, the long gown was delivered to Lin Hanwen. He used scissors to open the corner of his clothes, took out half of the paper from it, unfolded it and looked carefully. Looking at the signature of the word "shadow", he finally confirmed that it was indeed written by Shadow.

Lin Hanwen has seen many handwritten books about Shadow before, especially because he is familiar with Shadow's signature. He has never been able to contact Shadow. This signature is the only basis for identifying Shadow.

He thought for a moment, put the half piece of paper in his body, packed it up, got up and rushed to the city, and went to see Xia Deyan in person. Some things must be asked clearly.

When he appeared in the Qingshi Tea House, Xia Deyan was startled and hurriedly signaled the shop assistant to look forward to the store, and he introduced Lin Hanwen to the back room.

Xia Deyan turned around and poured a cup of tea for Lin Hanwen, put it on the tea table, then sat down and asked Lin Hanwen: "You shouldn't have come here, why? Is there an emergency?"

Usually, Lin Hanwen would not come to Qingshi Tea House on his own initiative. Only after obtaining the information from the shadows would Xia Deyan go to a special contact point to report to Lin Hanwen. Today, Lin Hanwen's sudden arrival made Xia Deyan a little strange.

Lin Hanwen nodded, took out half a piece of paper from his arms and handed it to Xia Deyan, and whispered: "The shadow appears in Nanjing!"

Xia Deyan was stunned when he heard this and quickly took the half of the paper. It was obvious that the half of the paper was torn off, and the specific content had been torn off, leaving only one signature. He was even more familiar with the signature of the shadow and recognized it at a glance.

He frowned and asked anxiously: "What the hell is going on? Shadow has been organized through my contacts and has never changed over the years. How did this signature come to your hands?"

Since Lin Hanwen received a telegram from Nanjing the night before yesterday, he had not had time to notify Xia Deyan of the matter. Today he came here to talk in detail.

"I came today for this matter. This is the situation. We received an emergency telegram from Nanjing the night before yesterday..."

Lin Hanwen explained the detailed process and causes and consequences of the matter to Xia Deyan, and finally said: "You have seen this signature now. It is indeed written by Shadow. That is certain that Shadow appeared in Nanjing and obtained major information. Because the situation was urgent, he took a direct warning method to inform Ku Quan, the person in charge of the underground party organization in Nanjing. Nanjing confirmed that his information was accurate and he survived the major crisis. Generator expressed his gratitude to us.

But the problem arises. They also asked us to explain how Shadow knows Kuquan's identity concealed? You must know that this problem is very serious. Kuquan's identity is important and has always been a top secret within the party. Even in the Nanjing Municipal Party Committee, only a very small number of senior executives know that Shadow has been in Shanghai. How could he know?

Lao Xia, you have always been a single-line contact person for shadows and organizations. Can you explain it?"

Speaking of this, Lin Hanwen paused for a moment and explained deliberately: "Of course, unless there is a major secret, you don't need to explain it. I will confirm it to Comrade Qingshan."
